    The President needs the approval of Congress to pull out of WHO, but I don’t expect it to stop him.

      I also believe there is a waiting period as well. Because I think he tried the same thing last time he was in office, but because it doesn’t take effect immediately it didn’t actually happen.

      And according this NPR piece in 2020 it looks like the waiting period is a year, so Trump was out of office before it would have taken effect.

        His “Project Lightspeed” bullshit used WHO resources as well 🤣

        He’s literally just trying to pull the same shit he tries with everyone on the planet. “I didn’t like the result , so I’m not paying you”. That’s all his simple mind can process. He doesn’t understand what it means to not participate in a global health organization whose sole purpose is stop pandemic-like situations.
